TWO DIAMOND THIEVES
Very Neatly Work Their Game u. on
JeweIer Karr.

OoWbttE hhFEs
Two well dressed white men walked into
j. Karr's jewelry store on Pennsylvania
avenue, near Seventh street, yesterday
morning and asked to be shown some dia-
mond rings. The clerk obligingly produced
tray Of the gems. The men seemed very
particular in their choice of the article
wanted, and did not appear hurried In
making their selections. The clerk talked
business and they talked back In the same
way. One OF the men, who wore a
black silk hat, seemed the most desirous
of making purchase. The way he dis.
cussed diamonds to those listening gave
the impression that he was well posted in
the matter. When the chance offered It.
self he stepped to the front door to get o
better light on a valuable diamond. This
did not suit him and he stepped out of
doors and 80 did his friend. and on reach
ing the sidewalk the pair did some lively
stepping, and at the latest account they
were keeping II up. The actual value OF
the diamond could not be learned, but II
the good looking men are caught they will
be held for grand larceny.

JAY GOULD BLACKBALlED.

"Jay Gould, with all his millions"
said one of New York's most sue
cessful business men, "cannot buy
what he most desires. lie would
almost give 80 per cent Of his for
tune for social recognition in certain
circles and fellowship with the best
business men of the city. 1t isn't a
question Of family or ancestors, and
obviously it is not question of
money. Up the river at Irvington
there is quite settlement of million
aires, all active men of affairs, who
attend regularly to business in the
city.
'They are soeiable lot of old
boys, and like to chat together on
the way to and from the city. Ten
of them combined, at suggestion of
one Of the colony, and made arrange
ments with the Hudson River Rail
road for special drawing-room car
on the regular train, so that they
could be sure of having seats together
every day and be free to talk to each
other. Each paid his share of the
expenses and was entitled to GER
tain number of seats for himself and
family and altogether it was a very
nice, social arrangement. They had
coach too, at Irvington to take
them from the depot to their homes.
When Jay Gould bought the Merritt
place, at Irvington, he thought it
would be pleasant to join his neigh
bors in the special car scheme. He
made a proposition to chip in and
buy section of the Wagner car.
His name was put before the ten
business men, one morning, and
somebody relieved the evident con-
straint of the party by suggesting
that the proper thing was to vote
upon the proposition lin the same
way as members of clubs are voted
for. The hat was passed, and Jay
Gould was blackballed. 1t is not
necessary to say whether or not the
vote was unanimous, but he was re-
FUSED admission To the special car.
Mr.. Gould is not boor in manners,
and he is fairly educated, and GER
tainly intelligent. But those bust
ness men have certain ideas about
ways of making money, and they do
not indorse the methods by which
Jay Gould has acquired his wealth.
Thep would not receive as an equal
three card monte dealer, and in
their eyes some forms of stock opera
tions are no better than thimble-
rigging. Mr.. Gould has an expen-
sive steam yacht to take him to and
from IrviDgton in summer. and no
doubt solaces himself with the salts
faction of making bigger show
than his neighbors. But perhaps he
would give the Atlanta for seat in
that special car. - N. Y. letter in
